This chapter presents the thermodynamics of multiphase systems, which begins with the fundamentals of equilibrium and stability. This is followed by a discussion of multicomponent multiphase systems and the metastable equilibrium that exists in the multiphase system. This chapter concludes with a discussion of thermodynamics at the interface, surface tension, disjoining pressure and superheat.
